"Viva la Vida"

by Coldplaycover for two pianos by Anderson & Roe

Long live life!

According to Coldplay frontman Chris Martin, this song was inspired by the vibrant paintings of Frida Kahlo, who, despite her personal afflictions, found a means of strength—and even immortality—in art. Such is the power of song, music, and creativity: to open our eyes, soothe us, shake us up, and awaken us to life.
